%%!! Tropes comnonly used in her roles

* ActionGirl: She's an expert Muay Thai fighter and a former MMA champion. In ''Haywire'' she played a spy and in ''Fast and Furious 6'' she acted as The Rock's Lancer
* BoobsOfSteel: During her fighting days, she was the number one ranked female fighter in the world. And with a bra size of 34D, she had the largest bust size of any active (or current) female fighter. In the movie ''Blood and Borne'' she also played a female MMA champion.
* CurbStompBattle: Every single one of her MMA fights was this, save for her bout with Chris "Cyborg" Santos. In her debut, against Leiticia Pestova, Carano knocked her out in a brisk '''38 seconds'''.
** A running theme in many of her on-screen fights.
* CuteBruiser: A cute Muay Thai expert who can wreck men and women with minimal effort. Her role as Ava in "In The Blood" is a notable example
** She has the most [[http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-MovF2vjMsBc/UDWorDksRzI/AAAAAAAAAbM/-5hSAOPmmEM/s1600/gina_carano09.jpg adorable smile.]]
* ModestyTowel: It wasn't certain that she'd be able to make weight for her fight with Kelly Kobold. She first weighed in at 142.75 lbs. Covered with a towel, she took off her sports bra and came in at 142.5. Finally, after taking off all of her clothes while still covered by the towel, she came in at 141, thus making weight.
* MsFanservice: Her success has as much to do with her looks as it does with her fighting ability.
** HandOrObjectUnderwear: Posed topless with her arm covering her breasts for the cover of ''Creator/{{ESPN}} The Magazine'''s 2009 "Body Issue."
** WalkingSwimsuitScene: Has done swimsuit photo shoots for ''[=Maxim=]''.
* RealLifeWritesThePlot: She got into Muay Thai, and later MMA, because she dated a Muay Thai fighter.
* {{Red Baron}}ess: "Conviction".
* TheRunnerUpTakesItAll: Before her fight with Chris "Cyborg" Santos in August 2009, both women were ranked number 1 and 2, respectively. Santos [[CurbStompBattle dominated]] their fight and became the undisputed best female fighter in the world. Since that point, Gina has gone on to star in big budget movies; Santos has failed drug tests, been largely inactive, and lost her number one spot to another newcomer.
* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: Her role as Riley Hicks in ''Fast and Furious 6''. She was introduced as an elite field agent on the side of the protagonists, then later does a FaceHeelTurn for no reason whatsoever. It's never even explained why.
